This has been a good week at JHA…no real problems, the heat has been one of the biggest and we are told relief is coming. But aside from any issues are the blessings on receives when we find ourselves in the presence of God. Beulah campground is a special place when it comes to finding God here. It’s sort of like Bethel where Jacob had the dream of the angels descending and ascending (Genesis 28) and when he awoken, he said, “Surely the Lord is in this place.” The same is said of Beulah, and God has been present and busy this year at JHA! We’ve had wonderful worship and classes and with several kids giving their lives to Christ and even more re-dedicating their lives, but last night God moved in a mighty way. To a visitor it probably didn’t seem like much, but a young man, who's been extremely bashful and reclusive, performed a short skit just before workship…by himself! I am not sure I remember the context or content of the skit…I was bowled over (as was every other adult here) that he got up in front of the assembly and did it. Then to see the joy on his face afterwards as about a dozen other kids congratulated him! Yeah, God is at work here and he’s doing big things! I'll likely forget the messages...I wish I wouldn't, but I'll never forget what he did in that boy!
